Chapter 447: Natural Calamity, Demon Disaster, Man-made Disaster
In the city of Huazhou.
Li Hongru stayed in the store.
In addition to the Chang'an General Office and the Luoyang Branch, there are no branches of the Jianghu Division.
Li Hongru can only find a place to live on his own business trip.
Half of his trip to Huazhou was to investigate the situation and issue a targeted article.
The other half was pulled by Yang Su to escape the disaster.
Yang Su is currently inseparable from Li Hongru's treatment, but Yang Su does not want to stay in the Li family's mansion and Luoyang City in Chang'an.
Li Hongru had to sigh slightly at this time.
He attacked with Nanming Ding Huo and the Dementor Knife, which can be regarded as the completion of treatment in the near future.
Yang Su's face was painful, but also comfortable.
Even if it is the ninth rank of the Yuan Shen, it is not a comfortable thing to encounter the invasion of Nanming Ding Huo, but compared to the many filths entangled in the Yuan Shen and the body, the pain is nothing.
Only by burning out many resentful souls can he become one and make his body have normal strength.
"Your Yin Fire is still a little worse than your senior brother's level, and you usually need to work hard," Yang Su said.
Although there was regret in his tone, it was not without appreciation.
Usually I rarely see Li Hongru refining fire, but this guy's Nanming Dinghuo has the attainments of entering the Dacheng.
Whether it was chanting mantras to condense yin fire, or the subtlety of manipulation techniques, Yang Su was amazed.
But what makes Yang Su a pity is that he has been treated by Li Hongru for a long time, and he has not seen the slightest sign of Li Hongru's progress in this fire technique.
The initial amazement became habitual, and Yang Su was also slightly dissatisfied at this time.
For ordinary people, this is enough to break through the rivers and lakes.
But for geniuses, Yang Su feels that it is not enough.
His vision has always been very high, and there are not many people who can enter his eyes, and it is a pity that Li Hongru is so amazing that he can't maintain it.
But compared to a few days ago, Li Hongru's Yuan Shen power seems to have increased, which has improved the power of Nanming Ding Huo.
This is with the help of the eldest grandson Wuji's genius earth treasure, so that the Yuan Shen Lin Door broke the steps.
This is the overall level is rising, and it barely made him point out two sentences.
Li Hongru is borrowing his strength to grow, how Yang Su doesn't understand this kind of thought.
But he really needs Li Hongru's means to be stronger in order to expel the stubborn diseases in his body.
At this time, after the treatment was completed, Yang Su also opened his mouth to mention a few words.
This made Li Hongru open his mouth slightly.
If Yang Su can get him a thousand taels of gold, he will be able to let Yang Su see what a small consummation of Nanming Ding Huo is in a few days.
His cultivation of the Trinity Yuan Shen is enough to choke, how can he have any time to toss the cultivation of spells.
Even if he is a genius, his cultivation time is insufficient, not to mention that he is not a genius at all, and he has been relying on his talent to eat.
Li Hongru weighed that he had been taught several times, which made Yang Su return to his room satisfied.
He was about to take a rest and go to the county office to inquire about the situation, when he heard someone knocking on the door outside.
"Please don't be impatient, Jianghu Si Bangwen ......"
As soon as Li Hongru spoke, he heard a slightly familiar voice asking outside.
"Li Lushi, I'm Zhang Wei!"
When he came to Huazhou, there was no shortage of people knocking on the door of Li Hongru's house, and many people were persuaded to go back by him.
It wasn't until he heard a familiar voice that Li Hongru opened the door.
"How did you get to Huazhou!" Li Hongru said strangely.
The person who came was Zhang Wei, the escort who ran errands with Li Daozong, who belonged to the martial arts level, and his strength was between the top second-rate masters in the rivers and lakes and ordinary first-class masters.
But Zhang Wei is not very old, only less than thirty years old, which also allows Li Daozong to have a focused training.
Before going to Tuhun Country, Li Hongru didn't expect to meet in Huazhou.
"Lord Shangshu came to Huazhou to do business, so I came with me!"
Zhang Wei gently closed the door, and then spoke to Li Hongru.
"Your reputation in the rivers and lakes is really high, we have heard the news that you came to Huazhou from the county government!"
Zhang Wei praised repeatedly.
People in the rivers and lakes want to take the title of fame, but Zhang Wei feels that Li Hongru's name is already very big.
When Li Hongru ran out, many people in the rivers and lakes could recognize Li Hongru.
As long as you are obsessed with the list of the Jianghu Division, you will inevitably know the digital supervisors of the Jianghu Division.
If there are many people in the rivers and lakes, it is just that, the key is so three or two kittens, it is difficult for people to forget.
Li Hongru entered Huazhou, and also stirred up the rivers and lakes of Huazhou, and even the county government office heard about it.
It seems that there are two people from the Jianghu Division, but if you post a list, there is a probability that there will be a lot of free subordinates.
"Lord Shangshu is thinking about you, and asks if you want to go over and take a walk!"
After a few polite sentences back and forth, Zhang Wei also spit out the right thing.
"I'm just going to visit Li Shangshu!" Li Hongru said with a smile.
He originally wanted to go to the county government tomorrow morning to inquire about the situation, and if Li Daozong was there, he would be able to pass at any time.
In the imperial court, as long as they have taken care of each other, many things are very convenient.
"Could it be that Lord Shangshu is also investigating the flood incident in Huazhou?"
When he went out of the inn with Zhang Wei, Li Hongru also asked Zhang Wei for some information to talk about.
"Lord Shangshu also came over to take a look at the situation" Zhang Wei said in a low voice: "Some people say that there are demon dragons in Huazhou, some people say that it is the white bone demon who is causing chaos, and there are also mentions that someone may have dug an embankment to release water......"
The further back, the lower Zhang Wei's voice became.
"The emperor asked people to check the grain storage in Luocang and Luokoucang, and a large number of people committed the crime of dereliction of duty and were severely punished."
"There is a Liyang warehouse here in Huazhou, which is also in the flooded range this time, and the damage is not small."
At this time, even Zhang Wei did not dare to speak out, so he had to mention it slightly.
If in order to eliminate sin, some people are moved to crooked hearts and open river embankments to divert water and indoctrinate them, this is a man-made disaster.
The floods in Huazhou occurred on the seventh day of December, shortly after the Tang Emperor returned to Chang'an City.
In addition to letting Hou Junji and Wei Chigong and others enter Luoyang, they also sent Qin to check back to Luocang and Luokoucang, and heavily fined many people, followed by the flooding of Liyangcang.
This has to make some people wonder if there is a connection.
There are natural disasters, demon disasters, and man-made disasters.
The controversy did not end after months.
The disaster caused by the flood is not only the people who drowned and disappeared at that time, but also involves the resettlement of people after the disaster, the reconstruction of houses, the cleaning of rivers, the storage of grain for disaster relief, and economic recovery.
Many people were ruined in the flood and had no property, and they were reduced to beggars.
There are also people who are infected with typhoid fever and other diseases during the winter floods, and there are deaths due to lack of food and clothing.
Many fields are flooded, making it difficult to cultivate.
The Huazhou area is in ruins, and after a few months, it is still in ruins, far from returning to normal.
Without the support of the remaining grain storage in Liyang Warehouse, the consequences of the city's flooding would have been even more serious.
At this time, there was no shortage of conspiracy theories flying all over the sky, and Zhang Wei was obviously deeply involved in them.
It's just that he doesn't dare to say the many suspicious targets.
This involved the state and county assassins, long histories, records, and personnel stationed in Liyangcang.
Conspiracy theories are so widespread in the number of people and high in rank that ordinary people can only shut up.
This is also the reason why the imperial court had to join the criminal department in addition to sending personnel from Dali Temple to investigate.
Even the crown prince and the eldest grandson Wuji deliberately let the Jianghu Division insert it.
"It's a new guy again!"
Li Hongru followed Zhang Wei into the county government, walked into the area of the county government's official residence, and immediately heard Li Daozong's voice.
"Lord Shangshu!"
Seeing Li Daozong, Li Hongru saluted.
At this time, more than a dozen law clerks were rummaging through the verification records and collecting and sorting out the information of the daily investigation.
In this dreary atmosphere, there were still several officials sitting, all with solemn faces and solemn breaths.
"This is Mr. Xing Guogong Liu Zhenghui, this is Liu Xuanyi, the assassin of Ruzhou, this is Liu Qi, the commander of Huazhou County, Cui Dunli of Dali Temple, and Gao Jifu, the superintendent of the imperial history!"
Seeing Li Hongru's open eyes, Li Daozong also introduced the principal officials.
He started with three surnames Liu, and immediately let Li Hongru know about the big family involved in the flood in Huazhou.
Divided into national dukes, it will have an extremely glorious past, ranking among the top members of the imperial court, and the place of the feud is like the existence of princes and kings.
These three people have different appearances, but they can see some similarities on their faces, and they think that three generations of the family are officials.
This kind of official family has extremely deep roots, and it is difficult for ordinary officials to verify it.
It is no wonder that important members of the imperial court have been sent over one after another.
Dali Temple Cheng is the highest official of Dali Temple that Li Hongru has seen so far, and the supervising imperial history kills people with one mouth, and professionally impeaches officials.
Coupled with Li Daozong, the secretary of the criminal department, Huazhou at this time has gathered a wave of top powerful figures.
Li Hongru saw the salute one by one, and everyone kept nodding in response.
This is obviously another time when the imperial court sent heavy troops into Huazhou.
Compared with Dali Temple and the Criminal Department, the Jianghu Division is not enough.
However, the Jianghu Division can mobilize many people in the rivers and lakes, which may also be beneficial.
For a time, Li Hongru was also introduced.
"The three generations of our Liu family are loyal to the emperor, and we dare not do this rebellious thing, and I hope that Li Lushi can verify it clearly and return us to a clean house."
Xing Guogong Liu Zhenghui was already quite old, and when he stood up tremblingly, even Li Hongru doubted that the old man would fall.
The other party's body was extremely weak, but the glimmer of light in his eyes made Li Hongru dare not take anything lightly.
This is also the great Confucianism of the imperial court.
Even if the body is constantly declining, as long as there is a certain amount of time to cast spells, Liu Zhenghui can also press a group of young people to the ground and rub them.
Liu Xuanyi, the assassin of Ruzhou, reluctantly squeezed out a smile, and Liu Qi, the commander of Huazhou County, gave up his hand again and again, mentioning that he could ask for any information he needed.
Dali Temple's Cheng Cui Dunli's expression was slightly anxious, and after months of inspections to no avail, and he was involved in various important personnel, his mood was obviously a little unstable.
Gao Jifu, the superintendent of the imperial history, had a solemn face.
The imperial history of this professional impeachment official constantly monitors everyone's words and deeds, trying to find a trace of weakness of heart or perfunctory investigation of the case.
The solemn and solemn atmosphere in the county government is more due to the pressure of this imperial historian.
When Li Daozong called Li Hongru over, he opened his mouth again and again to introduce him, which eased his breath a little, and everyone had some words on their lips.
The heavy members of the imperial court gathered, this is another group of literati, Li Daozong only feels that various conspiracy theories have emerged in an endless stream recently.
Dali Temple Cheng Cui Dunli was a little anxious, and he was no exception after being influenced by these literati.
"Actually, I'm more inclined to the displacement of the mountain range, and the small rolling of the earth dragon caused the river bank to be destroyed."
When Li Daozong communicated in a low voice, he recounted a little idea of his own.
This is a natural disaster.
Only natural disasters can leave everyone accountable.
At this time, the consequences have been caused, and Li Daozong naturally hopes that it is because of the impact of natural disasters.
This reminded Li Hongru of the collapse of the Great Sui Emperor's Mausoleum, and he didn't know whether this underground influence could be transmitted to Huazhou, which was more than 300 miles away.
